Your questions, answered

What is play therapy?

Play therapy uses developmentally appropriate play to help children express feelings, process experiences, and build skills. Therapists observe themes and teach coping through stories, figures, and games. Child and adolescent counselling may provide additional support for the whole family.

How are caregivers involved in play therapy?

Caregivers learn how to support skills at home and coordinate routines with school. Brief check-ins track progress and plan simple practices while respecting privacy and safety.

What concerns does play therapy help?

Play therapy supports anxiety, behavior, grief, and medical or family transitions. Activities build regulation, social skills, and confidence with goals tailored to interests and strengths. For creative expression, Art therapy or working with a Music Therapist may also be considered.

How long does play therapy take?

Many families see change over 6–12 weeks with consistent practice at home. Plans include simple daily routines that reinforce skills gently and fit family schedules.

How do we start play therapy?

An intake gathers history and strengths from caregivers and the child, then provides first-week actions and a follow-up schedule that fits school and activities.
